According to Samsung Singapore, the long-awaited update will start on Monday, April 14, for Galaxy S24 series devices. The update is expected to be available for other devices soon after. Previously, we noted that a worldwide rollout of One UI 7 would begin a week earlier, starting on April 7.

One UI 7, Samsung’s newest user interface based on Android 15, introduces significant enhancements for Galaxy devices. It strongly emphasizes AI integration and personalized user experiences. Key features include a redesigned interface featuring a simplified home screen, improved widgets, and a customizable lock screen. The “Now Bar” on the lock screen offers real-time updates from various apps, allowing convenient access to information without unlocking the device.

The update also deeply integrates Galaxy AI, enabling more intuitive interactions and streamlined tasks. Features such as “AI Select,” “Writing Assist,” “Drawing Assist,” and “Audio Eraser” utilize AI to enhance productivity and creativity. Additionally, deeper integration with Google Gemini facilitates natural language control of the device, making it easier to search within Settings and adjust preferences.

Furthermore, One UI 7 prioritizes security and privacy in the age of AI, providing users with greater transparency and control over their data.

One UI 7, which is built upon Android 15, has been in development much longer than previous One UI versions. It’s great to see it’s finally about to become a reality for device owners.

Samsung is so behind schedule, it might skip from One UI 7 straight to One UI 8

Despite numerous delays and a significant amount of time spent in development, One UI 7.0 could be the only version we see. Under normal circumstances, Samsung would release at least a 7.1 version to address any unforeseen bugs in the initial rollout, but a reliable leaker suggests things might change this generation.

"The next version of One UI 7.0 is One UI 8.0. There is no One UI 7.1 and 7.1.1," according to @UniverseIce on X. The news is surprising, but it makes sense. There have been numerous beta releases, but Samsung has yet to launch the full, stable version of One UI 7 — and neither has the company given a concrete release window.

Samsung to expand One UI 7 beta with no public release in sight

Samsung is already under a lot of fire for extensive delays to the One UI 7 rollout. Several months after Android 15 released, Samsung is still busy fixing bugs on One UI 7 for the Galaxy S24 series. However, a new report suggests there might be some respite as the beta may soon roll out to other devices, including last-gen foldables.

After the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung has seemingly begun testing One UI 7 beta for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6. Tipster Tarun Vats shared posted screenshots of the firmware builds allegedly being tested in-house before Samsung formally announces a One UI 7 beta program for the foldables.

Samsung's plans to release the Android 15 update to older devices have been deferred by unforeseen issues. While the brand is braving to fix those before releasing a stable version, another subsequent One UI beta has dropped -- and, it's the second one this week.

Just days after releasing the One UI 7 beta 4, Samsung is sending out yet another beta update for the Galaxy S24 series. YouTuber and blogger Jeff Springer received the update and shared the relatively small changelog in a post on X.
